Hey all, new member here.
Thought I'd introduce myself.
Also have a question for anyone interested or that owns a 240z. I'm interested in startig a project and wondered if anyone could give me any tips on where to look for a decent (preferrably running) model.
Anyone own any 240/260's here? I tried searching the forums for topics related to them but not comig up with much that's solely discussing 240's would love to know more about them and see other members projects!

Welcome!

Can't help with the project, but I'm sure you'll find someone who can!

[240Zed]

Thanks, no luck so far, still searching for more topics related to 240's.
If anyone can help that would be great.

Welcome to PistonHeads.

Sorry I cannot help on the project, but when you do find one I would love to see a build thread in the readers car section.

Thanks.

That's all I can find at the moment I'm afraid....and they don't help you in any way

Thanks, looked at all of them, still not what I'm looking for.
I was hoping somebody might have had one as a project car themselves at some point so I could have a look at a topic.
Nevermind, will keep an eye out, thanks anyway

Will do, once the OH and I eventually start it, could be a few years yet though, just hunting for inspiration and ideas.
Looking to put an RB25 in there too.

a few months earlier, and I knew of one for free :/

careful on the rust when you get one. they're old now, and all the ones I have seen have been rusted right through.

Yeah I've heard that it's very rare to find a decent one nowadays without rust in the UK.(plenty in the US though)
Will just keep searching until a decent one comes up and would pay the extra for minimal rust.

Welcome! I think there's a Nissan or Jap Car sub-forum, they should be able to help.

I remember going to Japfest a few years ago and seeing a 240z destroying pretty much everything on track. It was great to watch! I'm sure I came back on here and posted about it, and the owner replied and put some details and pictures up. Twas a few years ago though.
